i am a 3-day eventer with a soild pony club background,
i have been through both the uspc and the cpc system.
i believe that dressage (flat work) is the foundation to all riding and training. and gives you a solid foundation to build on.
i have ridden with trainers such as: george morris, nick holm-smith, adrienne lyle, barb soley and brain morton.
i have spent more of my time training or re-training young horses, then i have competing. i hope to change that some day. i have trained and schooled horses to the cc* level. i have also spent time in holland at brinkman sport horses, working with kwpn stallions and talented sport horses alike. i ride both english and western. even though my background is english i still enjoy cutting, reining and driving.
along with pony club, i was also in 4h for over ten years. where i showed livestock and competed in western gaming.
cross training is a great way to exercise you and your horses mind. it get’s you both doing something new and exciting.
i am willing to work with both english and western riders alike . and help them achieve their goals. i believe that i can help give you and your horse good and solid fundamentals to build on. and also challenges the more experienced horse and rider.
i know from years of trainers and lessons how important it is to find a instructor that fits you and your horse. you have to click with your instructor, like you do with your horse.
finding someone that works well with you and your horse is one of the most important things..
i believe that you can never stop learning.
if you have any questions i would love to talk to you.
